I was forced to make this meme at gunpoint

A meme image from the TV show "Seinfeld". George Costanza has fallen on the floor of Jerry's apartment with his pants around his ankles and is lying face down in shame, having had his deceptive plot fall apart, while Elaine and Kramer look on. Jerry says "And you wanna be my latex salesman" referring both to George's scheme to get a job by involving Jerry in a web of lies and to George's incompetence. This meme has the caption changed to "And you wanna be my air traffic controller" referring indirectly to Elon Musk and the multiple crashes that his social media site x.com has had today, while making fun of the fact that Musk wants the FAA air traffic control network to run on an unproven combination of his own AI software and his Starlink satellite network.
